heading for gullfoss

The Golden Circle is one of the most iconic routes you can drive in Iceland. If you have a rental car and your journey is leading you to the incredible Gullfoss waterfall, then you have simply traveled too close to the glacial highlands to skip it! At Gullfoss, you can park your car and hop on board one of our converted rocket launchers that have been transformed into a mighty monster truck that takes you into the highlands and up to our glacier hut. There, the snowcat is waiting to take you on a ride on the Icelandic glacier and to our newly discovered natural ice cave where Mountaineers have built a custom entrance for ease of access all winter long!

New snowcat that can withstand any weather

The Brand New Ice Cave

The ice cave was discovered just before winter and had this giant opening that seemed endless. Our expert guides were in awe and already planning to maintain access since winter was just around the corner and there was the possibility of a great deal of snowfall that would seal up the entrance. After building an access to the mysterious world of ice, we are able to welcome travelers into a safe environment and actually, experience the unique natural beauty of the ice cap from within.

Once we’ve explored the glacier underworld, we head back to Mountaineers Hut via the Snowcat and hop on the monster truck to ride back through the snowy terrain on our way to Gullfoss.

This is going to be the story you tell after an incredible trip to Iceland!
